[cod] MW3 Linux Required (Please)

[Julian MIRIBEL]

A server that could be of any use on whatever OS would be a first step...

Have you guys even tried to reach a dedicated server ? Have you seen what a
user has to do in order to play on good conditions (aka not on P2P servers)
? .
Add the fact that servers are not ranked and you'll get... let's add: 300
players worldwide who found their way.. (28 servers with > 10 players on)
as I type this message !

Of course I won't even speak about the 2005 game engine and graphics.. Nor
the fact that it's directly devivated from the Q3 (1999 !!).. I mean come
on guys, when I started the MP game last night I felt like I was time
traveling back in the last decade ! (oh wait... 1999 - 2011....)

As of curent situation, MW3 MP players should do themselves a favor: get
their hands on BF3.

I hope this will change in the next few days.. But wouldn't bet a cent on
it.
